~How YOU can sponsor a Song Download~
|
Last fall I began giving away the
occasional song to anyone who cares to
visit my website and download it. I
was really surprised at the response;
over 4500 folks turned up to listen or
download the song from that month. So
every six weeks or so, I've been
posting another one and the downloads
and listens have run between 2500 and
4500 most months.
I decided to
sell sponsorships for these downloads,
believing that the folks who listen to
my music would be a valuable audience
for potential sponsors as well. If you
know and love my music, maybe you'd
like to share your work with a few
thousand like-minded folks by buying a
sponsorship.
It's very
important to me that I respect my
listeners and not overwhelm them with
ads, so I care what products or
services I'm aligning with. I don't
have any hard rules, just my sense of
what would work well with what I do.
So far, these have been some
of my sponsors in the last year:
You may benefit
from being seen by my audience if you:
|
1. |
Create art that you wish to sell |
|
2. |
Have written a book or released a
musical album |
|
3. |
Have a service to share |
|
4. |
Wish to sell something |
|
5. |
Have a house on the market and need
more exposure |
|
6. |
Have an event, a concert or gathering
of some kind to publicize |
My sponsorships are $600
for a banner and link to your site. If anyone
comes to my website to download my song, when
they click to download, your sponsorship will
come up. We will post you in an attractive
way, using your logo or images from your site
when possible. Your song will be up at least
one month, sometimes I leave the same song up
for longer if downloads are still frequent.
As always, I'm open to creative
alternate ideas, even bartering for a portion
of my fee. Just let me know what you have in
mind and we'll explore it together.
Your friend,
~Michael Tomlinson
